Aliter Suites

So glad I chose to stay here and not in the centre of town where it gets extremely busy. The hotel was so calm and peaceful. The rooms are huge, I stayed in the loft which had a mezzanine and jacuzzi, definitely recommend! Staff were amazing, breakfast was delicious and the grounds including the pool were beautiful. The shuttle bus was a great perk also. The hotel ordered food in for me for a couple of nights which was super cheap and tasty. Thanks so much Aliter, I look forward to coming back again next year :-)

Rooms are big and comfortable. There is a great pool, bar and even small gym. Service was great - everyone was really nice and breakfasts were really good. Location might be a problem for some people - hotel is something around 1,5 km from Fira and 1 km from beach in other direction, so its possible to walk there and if you don’t feel like walking such distance up hill there are free buses to Fira from hotel and back 2-3 times a day. Biggest advantages of this place for me was service and that it was so quiet and peaceful compared to Fira.

Don’t let the distance to all the attractions on the island scare you from here. If you want to be in the middle of it all and listen to it all night, don’t stay here. If you want peace and quiet in a relaxing location which is close enough to all the excitement, then you found your place. Evi will answer all your questions, arrange tours and even call you a cab if you need one. Having a rental car helps to get around the island if you’re looking to explore the whole island. Just minutes from the airport, but you’ll never know there is an airport nearby. The pool deck is large and with a beautiful view of the water off the infinity edge of the pool. It’s a slice of heaven in this slice of heaven called Santorini! Red, black and white beaches are 10-15 minutes away by car. Be ready for some cliff hanger roads, but it’s worth the scary ride to experience the red beach. 15€ will get you 2 chairs and an umbrella for the day. Want an easier commute, the black beach is what you need. Rent a couple of lounge chairs and an umbrella for 40-80€ worth of food and drink purchases from the restaurant hosting your stay. Boat tours from the old harbor down the Fira cable car (6€ each way) will take you to see anything on the island. Fira is a 15€ cab ride or 8-10 minute drive. Parking is easy to find when you have a car that fits in your pocket. Food, drinks and shopping are abundant in Fira and Imorvigli. Once parked you can walk along the shops and restaurants for hours browsing and taking in all the island has to offer. 4 wheelers and motorized bikes are everywhere on the island so keep your head on a swivel because they are all around you. If wine is your thing, take a visit to one of the nearly 20 vineyards on the island. If you see something green growing on the island, it’s probably grapes or olives but mostly grapes. We visited the Estate Argyros about 10 minutes away and had the 6 wine tasting accompanied with bites to pair for 40€ per person. All of this fun from a home base of Aliter Suites!

We stayed here for the second part of our holiday in Santorini. The place is spotlessly clean throughout, the rooms are huge but the service is 5 star. Zili could not have been more helpful and is a credit to the hotel. We would definitely come back just because we know the service is so good. Thanks for having us.
